Product Roundup Review Writer

## CONTEXT
Product roundups guide purchase decisions and often carry affiliate revenue, so accuracy and trust are paramount. The best product roundups read as if the writer actually tested each item: they note build quality, real-world performance, and the gap between specs and experience. They assign ratings, name a best overall, and give honest cons. This prompt produces a credible, conversion-ready product roundup.
